HIGH-END SWING SET

HOW A HIGH-QUALITY SWING SET CAN TEST THE LIMITS OF YOUR CREATIVE INVESTMENT AND 4 WAYS TO HIGH END SWING TIME

“They sell “EVERYTHING!”. They very well may do. However, there are very few times that you may wish to venture out of your online comfort zone and make a true ONE STOP at a specialized design shop. Not to worry, social distancing need not hamper you either. If you can point and click, you can submit your order and have a custom designed upper echelon play scape for your family. You won’t find a tricked-out pony at a sleepy Sunday afternoon county auction either. If you crave for something BEYOND the best, then a high-end specialty showroom is what you need.

IF YOU WANT TO BE A LEADER, THEN GO WITH CEDAR

From the origins of its beginnings along the ridges of bark mulched forest floors along the Pacific coast to the rocky cold water salt spray eastern seaport mills of Maine, cedar wood has cleared the path for the some of the most stellar designs in high quality swing sets. No cookie cutter prefabs here. Just whatever dreams may come your way, to their established wood craftsmen and delivered into your life with the care and precision of a surgical team.

Safety standards extraordinaire, the care and thoughtfulness of each design found in service blueprint catalogs and a highly thoughtful dream team design will leave you spellbound and your child in awe as they cross arched bridges from one fantasy realm into another, where curly slides, tubes and tunnels make way for the galloping hooves of steed and stallion horse swings. Padded floor coverings, shingled roofs and solid turrets jut out above look out platforms and crow’s nests. Flags unfurl to squeals of delight and rock wall climbing turn the feint of heart into brave dragon hunters.

ECO FRIENDLY MEETS PARTS AND LABOR.

The gorgeous natural coloring of cedar is easily cared for with diligent routine maintenance just as any wooden structure is.

  • Washing the wood with a scrub brush along the floored surfaces, including any turfed swatches, roof shingles and under bridges; followed with a rinse and a thorough drying and reapplication of any stain/protectant will add YEARS to these investments.
  •  See any splinters? A bit of sandpaper will take care of that as it will with any beading of oozing crystalline sap.
  •  One more circle check to tighten any ratchet bolts, nuts, fasteners and brackets and you’re now a certified pit crew boss for this dream machine. 
Should there be any sign of weakening, only replace with manufacturer’s suggestions as these are specially designed to hold a designated weight per frame per item. Any slight deviation and you’ve weakened the structure and risk serious injury if something fails.

ONE SIZE DOES NOT NECESSARILY FIT ALL.

One of the most incredible advantages to working with such fine quality is the ability to add in adult sized fun as well. Larger seating, gliders, hammock chairs and even ultra-durable climbing bars, rope ladders and cross training accoutrements will have you whipped into a recharged fitness level as the swing set has now transitioned into a fitness center. For parkour enthusiasts of all levels to a family just wanting to stay fit together by playing together, the growth and happiness spreads and can increase bonding time. Not bad from one tiny cedar seedling.

IT ISN’T A TREND. IT’S NOW A WAY OF LIFE.

With a not-so-humble price tag starting at an average of $3500.00 for a high-end base model, the onus is established that these play sets are here to stay and wherever you choose to buy your high quality swing set, it is becoming increasingly recommended that you consider pre ordering now as the marketplace for them this past summer soared approximately 50 percent due to COVID restrictions. More and more people turned to stay at home family fitness and entertainment in the face of self-quarantine guidelines and there is no sign yet of the market for larger outdoor play items to be readily available without an extended wait time.

Box stores are fabulous. One trip in and out and you’ve stocked your entire house from cellar to ceiling with multipacks and discounts and deals of the day. You can order a movie, download music, renew a magazine subscription, and treat the cat to some real funky catnip filled toys. Have it delivered online or stand in socially distanced queues. Value? You bet. There are just some items that cannot be replicated. If you WANT the best, then GO to the best.
